I drive by a deserted house nearly every day, and my “American Picker” bloodline comes out in me and leaves me wondering about the house’s history. So last night, I was fascinated by this high school senior’s art display who received “Best Display” for her provocative photography showcasing the same house, and the house contents.
What was shocking is that everything inside was virtually untouched. She had ‘anonymous” briefcase and shoes in the display, both were found lying next to an easy chair. An old lampshade. Dishes were in the sink. Old food in the pantry. Old checks were lying around as if ‘anonymous’ was balancing his checkbook. The date on the paperwork was 1988.
Art display of abandoned houses.
Yes, that’s a bathroom…with a curtain on the window and toilet paper in the sink.
Possessions of ‘anonymous’.. The artist included anonymous’ shoes, empty briefcase, and old checks in the display.
Eerily beautiful.
What do you think?
